October 2025 Preview

ABA Inside Track

LIVE via recording from St. Charles, Missouri! It’s a preview episode! Yes, we continue our fall tradition of discussing everything coming out this spoooooky month from the comfort of the Thompson Center Conference hall. We spend some time gushing about all the great talks we just experienced before getting prepared for our NEXT conference, BABAT 2025. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to say, “hi” at the conference and for the Thompson Center for hosting us again. And keep your eyes out for an extra treat in your goodie bags later this month! Sadly, it’s not the 3K I needed to bid on a signed “Walden Two”.
